Hate to burst your bubble but the only chances of having anything Silverhawks at all was through the new Thundercats series, and we all know what happened to that.

On the other hand, out of all of the toy commercials from the 80s, Silverhawks is the only one that I would think would be able to be properly updated into a live action movie. Transformers and GI Joe definitely can not, and I doubt Voltron or Thundercats would work. However, as a sci-fi space opera, Silverhawks could work extremely well.

Can someone PM me the US number for Matty? I want to talk to someone who might has a clue of what is going on.

This has been on my wish list for a long time. I always liked Silverhawks over Thundercats as I felt the designs were much better.

I do, however, agree with Dr. Kain with the only chance we had of seeing Silverhawks again would have been with the recent revival of Thundercats. In the grand scheme of things, Thundercats were more popular than Silverhawks and I think both of these properties are now dead.

I am surprised, considering the amount of IP infringement by the Transformers 3rd party companies, that no one has tried to start a Kickstarter program. I know there was one for Sectaurs but I don't know how that all ended up.

What's interesting is that they are all at retail and almost none of them are on on-line sellers. I guess it makes sense - nobody is going to pay $6 shipping on a toy that costs $2 and breaks in half an hour. But it's a totally different situation with Nintendo fakes, which are a real problem on ebay and amazon. I really think any economic loss from these is incredibly minimal.

It's your place for Freedom of Speach for everything MOTU, POP, TMNT, , Horror, Wrestling, DC and Batman, and all other properties that are cool.
Is is now up and live please check it out and spread the word please!!!

I would love another Silverhawks line, including Sectaurs For that matter, I hope a better Thundercats line comes out too As much as people complain about Motuc qc,etc--I really wish Mattel was doing other lines like Silverhawks,etc like Motuc.

For the more positive side, if they did a multi-posseable Quicksilver and Mon-Star, I would buy those two, but only those two. Unless it is Figuarts or DC, I've decided I will only collect the faction leaders from now on for series. For example, I am selling off my entire Transformers collection sans Megatron, Prime, Galvatron, and Rodimus. I'm considering selling off my MOTUC collection except Skeletor and He-Man (although, I might keep Teela, MAA, Beast-Man, and Evil-Lyn) and Hordak and She-Ra. And I have Mumm-Ra and Lion-O for the Thundercats Classics.

How did Dr. Brown put it? The space-time continuum will unravel and destroy the universe? I don't see this happening. I think you're bluffing

I will admit, it is not an easy thought, but I just got an offer for $1200 for my entire G1 lot, so I'm taking it.

As for the MOTUC, it depends. The other problem is my sub if I do sell them off. I don't want to cancel it because I want my DCU figures, but then, I don't want to be stuck with the figures for the entire year, especially when that dumb trio comes out.

Didn't they say they would finish all the rest of the vintage figures next year? This would probably be a terrible time for you to sell.

Yeah, but I don't care about the vintage characters (and actually, it is as many as they can get next year). I'm sick of the constant defects (I have not bought Granamyr due to people having him defective), I am tired of Mattel's attitude towards their customers as they make it sound like we should be grateful to them, I am sick of Digital River (which is one of the reasons it would be nice to cancel my subs), and I need the room. I'm not into MOTUC like I was 2-3 years ago. Every month I get my subs, I open it, I pose it, I stick it on the shelf and that is it. I never look at it again for like 3-4 months, if that. I still haven't actually done anything with any of the figures since Horde Prime and Snake MAA.

Figuarts is what I want to collect now. Hence why I have bought 3 glass cases for them in the last month.

I never really took much of an interest in the line myself - for a variety of reasons (no paypal, high shipping, high cost, out of scale with vintage figures, obscure characters, 5 minute sellouts, etc.) I have only 3 figures: Orko, Cringer, and the little falcon that came packaged with the sorceress. I sold off Battle Cat and Skeletor a while ago; was pretty underwhelmed with them. I would of liked to have a Granamyr, but I don't have room for such a huge item.

Is volume 1 still available anywhere online (outside of eBay, I mean)? I have been putting off getting it and I am ready to pick up. I would assume that since volume 2 is MOD, it would not be going anywhere for a long time.

I think some Wal-Marts still have them...Best Buy would be an option. Amazon.

Silverhawks would make an amazing figure with better sculpts, articulation, and better materials.

Watching the V.I extras they talk about the toys and how, at the time, they were something different aesthetically with the vacmetal. I think it would still be something that stood out on the toy shelves.

I love Silverhawks. As a non-toy collector who has only ever collected MOTUC as an adult, I would be tempted by a Silverhawks line but probably wouldn't buy them. I would have bought the Thundercats Classics if the quality of the figures wasn't so terrible.

Out of the many toy lines from the 80's, Silverhawks did a better job than most of matching their cartoon designs. I honestly am fine with the vintage figures and don't feel the need to own new figures. But I'm not opposed to a new toy line coming out. I'll simply pass and stick with my vintage figures.
